Roleplayer Guild - Forum Roleplaying Games

This... is a cursed game.

Every once in a while, it will beat, and through a strange door, players will be forced in, and not let out until one has won.

There are one hundred spaces, and two six-sided dice. Even more frightening, however, are the miniatures, which are shaped exactly like the players.

The board is on a small table, around which are arrayed four couches. A large owl ominously perches in the corner. Beside the board is a sheet of paper and a deck of cards. There is no other decoration.

The door locks behind you. The sheet of paper rustles. You pick it up. At the very top are the words: "Read the Rules or the Owl will eat you."

Welcome to Goonmanji. Enjoy the game.

Apply here.

Rules:

Read the rules or the owl will eat you.

When your turn comes, roll the dice and draw a card.

You have 48 hours to post when your turn comes. If you do not post, you will be skipped. This refers to forum, not gameworld.

If you are skipped twice, the owl will eat you.

If you are being incredibly rude, the owl might eat you.

Feel free to role-play between turns.

The owl might eat you at random. We forgot to feed him.

There shall be no murdering of your fellow players, except by the owl.

All physical transformations will be rescinded at the end of the game.

Players:
Rasch(10)
Molly(7)
Nethias(14)
Chris(9)

Sophie(2)
Elwood(7)
Thomas(8)

It is currently Rasch's turn. Do not roll the dice until it is your turn, but you may otherwise post at any time. Remember, the game makes the cards, so I am in control.

Let the game begin! Progress is in the first post.

Nethias looked at the paper, his mouth agape, and called out. "You've GOT to be kidding me? Can any of you really believe this crap? How the hell is an owl supposed to eat you?" He sighed, calming down, "Well, might as well wait for my turn, since the door is locked and there is no visible way out." he walked up to the game board and sat down, waiting for the other player two players to roll their dice.

As I looked through the mirror, I saw not of me, but of what I had become - a shell of my former self, tainted by the hand of evil. It was then that I had decided; I had to fight this... thing, inside of me.

The blanket of darkness had touched me - caressed my innocent cheek. The warmth it offered felt gentle, kind.
I plunged into the darkness, wanting only the love it offered. I wanted to be loved; for someone to think I was important. This was what I had dreamed so long for.

The owl hoots at Nethias and glares. It does not take kindly to being mocked...

Rasch was forced into the room away from his life. The door locked behind him and he tried to force it open. In frustration he punched the door. "Shit!" he cursed as pain shot through his hand. Drawing his hand away in pain Rasch saw the door had not taken any visible damage. Resigning himself to the couch he snatched the paper away from a short kid with messy black hair. Rasch read it over and seeing that it was his turn grabbed the dice. He was not in a good mood being trapped here. He rolled the dice on the 100 square game board. A 6 and a 4 showed on their tops. Afterward he grumbles something about a child's game and drew a card following instructions.

The card reads:

"Angst, my friend? Not the best.
Put your hostility to rest!
After all, it's not all that bad.
This game has much fun to be had!"

(Rasch is now incredibly happy no matter what.)

(It is Molly's turn.)

Elwood had been examining his piece while Rasch took his turn. "Very detailed," he thought as he pulled out a piece of bread from his suit. The man in black didn't seem to mind being here, although any emotion that could be seen through his eyes was blocked by the shades he wore. Taking a bite of the food, Elwood waited for his turn.

Molly sat next to the board a little worried. It was her turn and she didnt know what was going to happen. She rolled the dice and got a three and a four. She read the Card.

The card reads:

"For you I think I'll make a nice gift,
give your spirits a bit of a lift.
I'm not truly mean, though I do try,
So I give you this command: FLY!"

(Molly is now a giant butterfly.)

(Nethias' turn)

Chris sat down deciding to stay a distance away from the game until his turn. Seeing a girl draw a card and turn into a giant butterfly he held back a gasp. This is weird....I don't know what's going on or how I got here but I am here....and this 'game' is powerful.... he blinked as he thought admiting to himself that he was a little scared. He had also noticed the owl glaring at a player who had doubted it's abilities. Note to self....show respect for the owl who can apparently eat you.... he thought pulling out a watch so that he could check the time.
